I like the sound of all types of speakers because they are all different. Horns, electrostatic, ribbons, planers, etc. can all sound fantastic, and if I was going to have more than one system again, maybe I would build it around one of those alternatives, That said if I am only going to have one system I would stay with a more traditional design.
In my opinion "traditional" speakers do everything pretty good even if they do not do one thing or one type of music as well as those speakers noted above.
I would have liked to have heard your horns driven with all that Rowland power for as you know most people pair horns with low power tubes, so I have a hard time separating one from the other.
Bottom line, what I has suggesting to Howie, if you are going to have one great system for all types of music stick with his Meridians. If he has the room for a second system then add a horn/tube set-up.
